It depends. The outside of a regular puzzle is easy too because the straight sides are distinctive (usually). But in a round puzzle sometimes the outside pieces just lie next to each other until you connect more interior pieces around them.

Birds and bugs in celebration,
Blooms that pop with brilliant hues.

Nice one, like the birds and the octopus vase. I used to have a circular one of a map of the world, and used to do it over and over again. Good times.

That vase was the hardest part. Luckily it wasn’t too big. Once that was out of the way the rest was pretty straightforward.
Puzzle time is always good times!

I had no idea they had circular puzzles. At least it makes getting the edges easy 😀

Yep, I’ve got a few circular puzzles. And doing the outside can be a little more difficult.

Really? I would have thought the distinctive rounded edges would have made things easier.

Is it based on a painting? It’s very familiar looking.

Not that I’m aware of. At least not a famous painting. I may be able to find some info on the box.
